Exhibitions & cultural centre Alte Burg Gmünd

The venerable rooms in the Old Castle offer, with the Gothic Cellar, the Knights' Hall, and the Lodron Hall, additional beautiful exhibition spaces in the artists' town of Gmünd. Above all, Carinthian artists and those from partner cities or partner cultural associations, as well as schools and workshops for the disabled, are given the opportunity to present their work on a large scale.

The new “Castle People” continue to provide generous space for Carinthian artists to present their work, in collaboration with the Gmünd Cultural Initiative.

Exhibition 2025: "Perfect Bubble – My Life is a Children's Room"

RICARDA BENTZIN (*03.18.1991) has been painting in bright colors and experimenting for six years. Her works combine intuitive portraits with diverse, often playful backgrounds. In doing so, she remains true to her goal: to bring the carefree and unrestrained world of childhood to the canvas and to stage the comfort zone of that time.

With brush or fingers, she creates works that consciously do not submit to a clear line, but rather draw from versatility and intuition. For Ricarda, the freedom to choose themes spontaneously is a central element: “Life is far too versatile to be constantly restricted to one theme.”

Another focus of her work is environmental protection. With a portion of her proceeds, she supports Sea Shepherd, an organization actively engaged in ocean protection.

Ricarda Bentzin pursues her passion for art as a sideline – with dedication and always inspired by the idea that art and engagement can go hand in hand.

The exhibition can be visited during the restaurant's opening hours.
